Ezstream is a command line source client for Icecast media streaming servers.
It began as the successor of the old "shout" utility, and has since gained a
lot of useful features.
In its basic mode of operation, it streams media files or data from standard
input without reencoding and thus requires only very little CPU resources.
It can also use various external decoders and encoders to reencode from one
format to another, and stream the result to an Icecast server. Additional
features include scriptable playlist and metadata handling. All of its
features make ezstream a very flexible source client.
Supported media formats for streaming are MP3, Ogg Vorbis and Ogg Theora.
Native metadata support includes MP3 (ID3v1 only) and Ogg Vorbis, and many
more formats when the optional TagLib support has been compiled in.
Ezstream is free software and licensed under the GNU General Public License.
===> The following configuration options are available for ezstream-1.0.2:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
EXAMPLES=on: Build and/or install examples
TAGLIB=on: support TagLib
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
The ezstream port has been updated to version 1.0.2.
The configuration file is located at:
${PREFIX}/etc/ezstream/ezstream.xml
Several example configuration files are now available in the examples directory:
${PREFIX}/share/examples/ezstream/
To configure ezstream, copy one of the example files to ${PREFIX}/etc/ezstream/ezstream.xml:
# cp ${PREFIX}/share/examples/ezstream/ezstream-minimal.xml ${PREFIX}/etc/ezstream/ezstream.xml
After copying an example configuration, ensure the file has correct permissions:
# chmod 0600 ${PREFIX}/etc/ezstream/ezstream.xml
Then edit the file to suit your needs.
Available examples:
- ezstream-minimal.xml (minimal configuration for Ogg streaming)
- ezstream-full.xml (full configuration with all options)
- ezstream-metadata.xml (configuration with metadata updates)
- ezstream-stdin.xml (stream from standard input)
- ezstream-video.xml (video streaming configuration)
- ezstream-file_template.xml (file template configuration)
Additionally, a new utility 'ezstream-cfgmigrate' is available to help migrate
old configuration files to the new format. See ezstream-cfgmigrate(1) for more details.
The rc.d script now runs ezstream in the background by default.
To enable and start the service:
sysrc ezstream_enable=YES
service ezstream start
For verbose output (foreground mode), add the -v flag to ezstream_flags:
sysrc ezstream_flags="-v"
See ezstream(1) for more details.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

NEW XORG ON FREEBSD 9-STABLE AND 10-STABLE
This update switches over to use the new xorg stack by default on FreeBSD 9
and 10 stable, on osversions where vt(9) is available.
It is still possible to use the old stack by specifying WITHOUT_NEW_XORG in
/etc/make.conf .
FreeBSD 8-STABLE and released versions of FreeBSD still use
the old version.
A package repository with binary packages for new xorg will
be available soon.
This patch also contains updates of libxcb and related ports, pixman, as well
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().
In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.
- Add LDFLAGS to CONFIGURE_ENV and MAKE_ENV (as it was done with LDFLAGS)
- Fix all ports that add {CPP,LD}FLAGS to *_ENV to modify flags instead

Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order. The code present
in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the
old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in
exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.
Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.
Preliminary documentation can be found at:
http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt
which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.
